Quick question.

Not sure if anybody has ever done a side by side comparison. But do people find a fan on the motor works more effectively blowing directly onto it (either from behind or above) or if the fan is mounted to a heatsink?

Only ask as i was running on the weekend (rev pro & mmm 13.5) The motor was coming off feeling really rather hot to the touch but according to temp gun was only 65c.. Whereas when I ran this without a fan it came off feeling equally hot yet temp gun was reading 85c... Anybody give an opinion. I'm sure my fingers are sensitive enough to feel a 20c different lol.

Cheers Nick
